Re: Problems using recent Rogers Wireless (Canada) SIMs in GTA02

2012-09-27 Thread Al Johnson
Have you tried the new SIM in any other 2G-only phone? SIMs from 3(UK network) 
seem to work only in 3G-capable devices. I never looked into how or why, but 
it's possible Rogers are doing this with new SIMs either by accident or 
design.

 In 2010, we were able to take circa mid-2008 Roger Wireless SIMs
 (Canada) borrowed from an iPhone 3G and get it to work in Android Froyo
 on the GTA02 850Mhz.
 
 Two years later, we decided to add some GPRS reporting capability to our
 Wi-Flight product which is currently using Wi-Fi only, we are unable to
 get a carrier registration at the AT command level using two Rogers SIMs
 (both from 2012, one used in an iPhone 4 and the other in a Samsung
 Galaxy S II Skyrocket (LTE)).  The GSM baseband code was at Moko8 so we
 had the  fix for bug 666.  We tried Moko11 but it didn't make a difference.
 
 We repeated the same Android Froyo setup and indeed it doesn't work when
 we try the circa 2012 SIMs.
 
 Our product doesn't run on Android, the Froyo stuff was just tried to
 attempt to replicate something that worked before.
 
 I found a working older Rogers full-sized SIM from my GSM-enabled alarm
 system, which I think it at least 3-4 years old.  It worked just fine in
 a Nexus S and I was able to send an SMS and Edge data from the phone
 (it's a T-mobile AWS phone so no 3G on Rogers).
 
 The conclusion so far is that something has changed in the Rogers SIMs
 that makes it incompatible with the GTA02.  I am wondering if anyone
 else has encountered this problem.  I'd be happy to be able to get a
 Fido-branded card to work (haven't tried that yet).
 
 We've repeated the same issue with a half-dozen GTA02s so we're pretty
 sure it's not a one-off phone problem.

problem with microsd

2012-09-27 Thread Davide Scaini
Hi all.
I asked on shr user list with no luck.
I'm using shr-core, I have this problem: the device for the
microsd is not created, i.e. /dev/mmcblk0p1 does not exist.
Do you have any fast fix?

This is the problem:

root@om-gta02:~# fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0

Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 7948 MB, 7948206080 bytes
4 heads, 16 sectors/track, 242560 cylinders, total 15523840 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

 I'm surprised GTA02's assemble quality. I bought it in 2008. And it 
 still works like a personal PDA (debian+gprs). Many thanks to the 
 developers.

I use it since 2008 as my only phone and with the original battery
(that's something!). I'm running QTMoko on it.

Hi Davide,

Try (re)starting udev (or mdev) and see if you get any info.

Kind regards,
Ed

Re: problem with microsd

2012-09-27 Thread Davide Scaini
I can create the node

root@om-gta02:~# mknod /dev/mmcblk0p1 b 179 1
root@om-gta02:~# mount /media/card/
mount: /dev/mmcblk0p1 is not a valid block device

but cannot mount.
Btw if i use fdisk and change id of the partition selecting 83 linux
and writing to disk, after sync I have the device ready and I can mount
it... so why it's not mounted on boot?
thanks
d
